Cheek Lift
Treatment that lifts the skin of the cheeks that has sagged due to the muscles weakening with age, making the skin tight again. Incisions are made on the upper part of the ear and near the temples, and not only the skin but the SMAS fascia are surgically elevated simultaneously, with the promise of long-term results. Scarring is inobtrusive due to the incision being made along the ear.

Cheek lift - Surgery details
MACS lift
This face-lift procedure has attracted quite a bit of attention in recent years. Incisions are made to the temple area (1), and the SMAS is lifted with surgical thread so as not to detach the skin (2). The extent of detachment is small (3), and since the SMAS is firmly lifted, recovery is quick, achieving approximately the same high-quality results as the SMAS method.

SMAS method
This procedure is performed if the sagging of the cheeks is significant or if a considerable effect is desired. After the skin is incised (1), the SMAS is detached (2) (3) and lifted directly (4), offering the possibility of significant, semipermanent effects.

Thread lift
A facelift that involves no incisions, performed with special thread. Downtime is minimal, with full recovery usually possible by the next day. On the other hand, effectiveness is short-term. This treatment method could be recommended for those with slight sagging or for those who wish to give the results of a facelift a try.
There are many types of lifting thread available, such as silhouette sutures and spring lifts, and the thread used is chosen based on what would be most appropriate for the procedure.

Forehead Lift
This procedure lifts the skin of the forehead, removing wrinkles and sagging. The treatment has a considerable effect on not only wrinkles on the sides of the forehead, but also on other issues such as vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows and sagging of the eyelids. Treatment methods include those that incise the skin and those that use endoscopy to leave barely any scarring at all. Scarring is inobtrusive due not only to the incision method but to the placement of the incision along the hairline.
| Duration of Surgery | ~3 hours |
|---|---|
| Period of swelling following surgery | 1-2 weeks |
| Recovery period | 1-2 weeks |
| Hospital visits following surgery | Re-examination 4 days, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after surgery |
| Cost | ¥630,000 |

Neck Lift
Procedure that lifts the skin of the jaw and neck to remove wrinkles and sagging. The area beneath the underside of the ears is incised, and the skin and fascia are lifted and fixed in place. As the incisions are made along the base of the ear and the hairline, scarring is inobtrusive. Has a distinctive effect in cases that combine sagging cheeks with a sharp jawline. Promises long-term effectiveness.
